HAIR AT HOME




Have at least two shampoos and conditioners in your rotation. You wouldn’t eat the same thing everyday and expect to get all you need nutrition-wise, your hair is the same. The type of cleansing and moisturizing products will vary with your wants, but a good concept to keep in mind is that of balance. For Example:

If you crave VOLUME, rotate your Volume Boosting line it with a Moisture line.
(You want volume yes, but you don’t want dry crispy ends)

For COLOR & HEAT DAMAGE, rotate a Strength Building line with a Moisture line.
(Strength is good, but without the balance of moisture, over-keratinization can cause the hair to lose its elasticity and break off)

TREAT an OILY SCALP by Rotating an Oil Reducing Treatment line with an Everyday line (Don’t ever condition the roots, and also consider if you over shampoo your hair. The body’s oil production accommodates to your shampoo schedule. Some of you might need to try shampooing less to send the message to your scalp to take a break on oil production)

TREATING DRY SCALP is a two-part process; Exfoliation and Moisturizing (FYI, Moisturization is not a freaking word).
Most Dandruff Shampoos utilize a bunch of waxes to coat the scalp to keep dead skin cells stuck, worsening the problem. You need to slough off the dead skin, then moisturize to make a difference.
Rotate between a SCALP therapy line for dandruff and an intense Hydration line. Davines has a legitimate dandruff treatment line we recommend. Some have had success using baking soda as an exfoliant. However, make sure to neutralize the scalp and hair with apple cider vinegar, and follow with a deep conditioning mask.
(Some have flaky scalp seasonally, others from a slight food allergy, or from the fragrance etc. in your current line up of hair products. Eliminating the culprit might be necessary, or maybe the flakes are worth the pleasure)
It may be time to see a doctor to investigate possible allergies.

-Treatments. If using a treatment oil or mask, steam will facilitate its penetration. Another option for a treatment oil, is to apply and tie up your hair on a day off allowing the treatment to soak in for the day.

Your stylist will be able to tell you how often you should be using each line in your rotation.
